August 15, 2001: The award-winning website of the Herb
Research Foundation (HRF) was recently chosen by the North American
Menopause Society (NAMS) as a preferred link for their visitors.
Sharon Somerville, Communications Manager for NAMS, stated in
an announcement letter to HRF president Rob McCaleb, " www.herbs.org
is among a select group of professional web sites recently approved
for a direct link from www.menopause.org.
Visitors to the NAMS web site will now benefit from this link
by direct access to the helpful information and support offered
on your site."

The HRF site was among more than 100 websites researched over
the past year by an NAMS project team, who assessed sites with
a rigorous set of NAMS criteria for web links. HRF's site met
the criteria and was approved by the NAMS Board of Trustees, which
includes eight medical doctors and four PhDs. NAMS is a nonprofit
organization with a membership of multidisciplinary leaders in
a variety of health fields, providing unbiased information on
all aspects of menopause for healthcare providers and the public.
